Leading in Offshore Wind

Offshore wind farm development presents its own set of unique challenges. Limited access to onsite hub-height wind resource measurements makes it more difficult to fully characterize the wind resource in offshore environments. Overcoming this challenge requires a variety of creative solutions.

AWS Truepower provides developers, owners, lenders, investors, and government and non-government agencies with innovative solutions to a full-range of offshore wind energy needs. From wind resource and energy assessment, to oceanographic studies, to wind farm layout and design, your project’s success is our priority. Our offshore team specializes in the management and integration of the multi-disciplinary aspects of offshore wind development and has designed and assessed nearly 100,000 MW of wind projects, both on land and offshore.

Offshore Wind Consulting Services

In the offshore and coastal development arenas, AWS Truepower designs and implements offshore wind resource assessments and met-ocean studies, including met tower design and review. We employ innovative measurement approaches using buoys, fixed and floating platforms, and remote-sensing technologies for wind measurement and atmospheric characterization. We are also a leader in offshore studies that are paving the way for the development of a viable offshore industry in the United States, including cost-benefit analyses, industry data needs assessments, and the evaluation of new technologies.

Demonstrated Leadership

AWS Truepower is an active member of the offshore wind community. In 2003 we prompted the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) to form the Offshore Wind Working Group, which was lead for several years by AWS Truepower President and CEO, Dr. Bruce Bailey. Our offshore wind collaboration activities are also reflected by involvement in over two dozen U.S. and international offshore wind conferences. Other offshore leadership roles include:
